I feel that it is my job to know exactly where the best tacos are located in all of the cities in South Texas. That being said I looked up a few places online in Eagle pass, Texas and then I really deep dived. This restaurant was hidden amongst the MANY MANY options. Only having 14 reviews on yelp I said let me give it a try. I get there parking lot is empty and it's actually a bit confusing how to park. I finally decided to make up the parking myself and parked my car. Walked inside and was greeted by a friendly waitress. Only about three people working there. Dining room was empty. I will say it was around 7:00AM when I walked in on a Monday so I didn't expect no one to be there. That concerned me a little. However, I was given the menu it was all in Spanish. Luckily I understand most Spanish, but just can't speak it. I told the waitress who spoke English and Spanish what I wanted. Which was 2 potato, egg, and cheese tacos on flour; 1 bacon, egg, and cheese on flour and 1 Mexican coke to start and 1 to go. This is my go to breakfast taco order. The order came out rather quickly, but also not too quickly if that makes sense. The waitress brought it out on a beautiful hand painted authentic Mexican plate. The style kind of reminded me of my travels to Puebla, Mexico. I felt right at home. The tortillas were a nice color, the potatoes and bacon weren't soggy, and the cheese was melted! Those are my automatic failures for a restaurant if it is messed up on my breakfast taco and so far Gaona's had passed. Now time for my first bite. WOW. The texture, of the entire taco was amazing. The taco was a decent temperature not too hot which I like. The one thing I really want to rave about and that I know a lot of my family would love- is that the tortilla was TOSTADA and guess what... I didn't have to ask!!!!! Everywhere I go we always ask for our tortillas to be tostada, but this morning I was so exhausted from work the day before that I completely forgot. A tortilla makes the taco. The egg was cooked well, bacon was in strips and CRISPY, but NOT burnt and the potatoes (chef kiss) were perfection. I would say out of all the taco places I've tried this would rank in my top five. One thing I did find myself gravitating to was adding a bit more salt to my taco, but I grew up in a sodium loving family. So my love for salt is unmatched. After I finished my tacos I stayed a little bit longer to finish some work at my table and the waitress still checked up on me even though I should have left a long time ago. It hit around 8AM and people started to come in and this was the crowd I was hoping for as I was concerned no one would be there. This crowd though wasn't just any crowd... I could tell these families coming in with abuelas, abuelos, tíos/tias, primos/primas, the entire familia showing up weren't just guests they were actually regulars. It seemed everyone who enter had been there multiple times already and had their designated tables. That's what I love about a small restaurant like that to the staff you are family and that's what makes the tacos even better. This place is a hole in the wall, but that's a wall I would also run through! Go try it out you won't regret it! Just good luck parking if you are the first one there and there aren't any cars parked already, because when I was leaving all the cars outside were totally parked differently than me, but somehow their way made a lot more sense. Here's what I ordered and cost down below: - 1 Taco Tocino Con huevo: $4.49 - 2 Taco de Papa con Huevo: $3.49ea -2 Coca Cola Mexicana: $4.49ea Total gross amount of order not including tip: $20.51 I'll be back next quarter for sure!

I wasn't aware they had a cut off but the nice server said she would ask if they would still make it for me and THEY DID! I wouldn't encourage this behavior but it was a nice gesture from the kitchen for a first timer like me. I sat by the large window that looked over the palm trees and front yard. It was very reminiscent of the island in Mexico and that really warmed my heart. The juice I ordered tasted freshly pressed pressed and not powdered mix which is rare in this city. Also, I noticed the have a fit menu and they offer green juice as well. Cannot wait to come back! Consistency would easily make this my favorite place in EP

As you walk in the place is small but cozy and very welcoming. The menu is very small and has a "special" everyday. They have everyday favorites always but do run out towards the end of their day. As expected first thing that comes out are a small portion of chips and salsa on the house. Two tasty salsas but nothing crazy on the spice. We ordered lemonades and they tasted exactly how I like them, less on the sweet side and more on the lemon side. I ordered the caldo de res and my girlfriend got the caldo tlalpeño as it was a Monday and that was the special. The caldo de res tasted great, I adjusted the taste with lemon and salt to my preference. The caldo tlalpeño was good as well, very tasty with the chipotle pepper in the center. We also ordered two different tacos. A breakfast taco and a lunch taco. The breakfast was Chile con queso, it was basically melted cheese with the red salsa. The lunch one was a taco de bistec, great portion and cooked and seasoned perfectly! Over all I would recommend this place, id love to try other plates!
